My Singapore-based friend Jeff had decided to fly home to our hometown for the holidays and asked if we could meet up with a couple of college friends for lunch before he flew back. Maya was busy at their family business so we decided to go to a restaurant near her so it would be […]
Alavar’s Curacha {Foodee}
I thought this was going to be a happy post. Sadly it won’t be. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s start at the beginning. My brother brought his new wife home with us for Christmas. One of her friends who grew up in the same hometown as us had told us that she needed […]
Oppa Gangnam Style (Dinner & Dance @ W Hotel)
Our yearend party was held last December 15 at the newly opened W Hotel in Sentosa Cove. The theme was Oppa Gangnam Style, which meant quirky glam, I guess? For the first time, they wisely decided to hold it on a Saturday night instead of the usual Friday night, for the benefit of the poor […]
Santa Cruz Island {Deetour}

We also ate some of the bibingka which was supposed […]
Vigan, Ilocos Norte {Deetour}
I have an officemate whose hometown is in Vigan, and he was expecting us in town at 10am on the day we drove off from Tuguegarao, and he had offered for us to have merienda in their home when we got there. Unfortunately we miscalculated the time (it was 7 hours to Vigan), so when […]
People’s Park in the Sky, Tagaytay {Deetour}
Thom initiated a crazy plan out of the blue, and the rest of us, bored on a Saturday, decided to go along with his plan. We soon found ourselves posing for crazy “concept” pictures in People’s Park in the Sky in Tagaytay. Most of us can definitely be actors, right? 😝 Then we had dinner at RMS […]
